| We were amazed that not only did a house full of people ignore a young, drunk woman locked in a room with many males, but that when it was clear there was a sexual assault situation going on, and three women broke in to intervene, the entire party still ignored the situation and gave no assistance. In fact, one woman at the party told a reporter that she saw ten people cheering baseball players who were engaging in sex with the girl. She did not interfere because “I didn’t think of it as a rape situation.” Our campaign is simple. No Woman Left Behind was created by Sac State students to educate the community about sexual assault. No Woman Left Behind means that if you are at a party, a bar, or any other social gathering and you see someone passed out from alcohol consumption, it is your responsibility to step in. Approximately 85% of sexual assaults involve alcohol, and most of the time people were present at the party or gathering who may have been able to intervene before the assault occurred.
